Recently, after reading Xu Pingben's "Guide to Medical Cases", I deeply felt that Xu Lingti's ridicule of Ye's homeless origin seemed to be a silent contest. Xu and Ye are similar in age, and their activity ages and regions are also quite similar, so Xu's words may be credible.
The theory of Yip's family medicine is mostly due to the fact that many years after Yip's death, and its reliability is indeed debatable. In an agrarian society, the flow of information is not smooth, and it is indeed not easy to make a name for yourself in the Jiangnan area where there are many famous doctors without a family medical background. Yip's ability to stand out in such an environment is evident in his superb medical skills.
A closer look at the Ye case shows that it can be used freely in the domain of each family's director. Especially in the application of Jing Fang, although Ye's previous typhoid fever was a prominent study, there were not many cases handed down from generation to generation, and the secrets of its application were mostly in the hands of private people. And Ye's galloped in this field, adding and subtracting, and reached a state of superbness.
However, Yip's fame for pioneering the method of warm and hot treatment has obscured his achievements in the application of Jing Fang. This can't help but make people sigh that the achievements of a generation of famous doctors are sometimes overshadowed by the times and clouds. But in any case, Ye's medical attainments are worthy of our in-depth study and reference.
Xu Lingti's ridicule of the Ye family may just be a manifestation of his heroic shortness of breath. On the road of medicine, we should pay more attention to the medical skills themselves, rather than personal gains and losses. Only in this way can we better inherit and develop the essence of traditional Chinese medicine and make greater contributions to the cause of human health.
Lu Maoxiu's words are the best commentary on this point. He believes that the study of medicine should start with classics such as "Treatise on Typhoid Fever", and although it may be difficult at first, the understanding will gradually deepen over time, and eventually it will become easier and easier. On the contrary, if you choose books that are carefully categorized and seem easy to start with from the beginning, it is easy to fall into confusion and confusion. This is because these books only touch on a certain aspect of TCM and lack the overall vision and depth. Therefore, we need to stick to the basic position and grasp the core principles of Chinese medicine in order to truly make progress and improvement.
Yip's clinical achievements, no matter which point, are easy to come by, and they have surpassed many of their predecessors. Yu therefore said: Ye Tianshi and Zhu Danxi are both strange people in the history of Chinese medicine, Mencius said: "Praise his poems, read his books, I don't know his people, but it's okay!" It's about the world. Yu sighed because of it!
